Answer 7

Apply it right before you leave for school.

Put some of your mom's eyeliner and mascara on.

Take baby wipes or eye makeup removal wipes with you to school,

so you can wipe it off in your backyard, in the school bathroom, or even on the bus.

Answer 10

     I was in your same problem last year as a 14 year old.  Naturally im a "jock," much like my older brother but I was starting to get into the "skater" looks and clothes.  I also became friends with a few skaters and learned how to skate board within a few months.    

    One day my dad was at a mall that I was at and spotted me walking out of a skateboard shop with a bag full of Ts.  My dad was currently a principal at a local high school.  Just imagine how awkward it was to explain that I had developed a new look and hobby, especially when he had frowned apon them most of his life.  

     I eventually worked things out with him and my brother by just being honest but with a point.  They both relized they were very steriotypical and I even got my brother into skateboarding.

     Bottom line, just tell your dad and hope for the best.  Don't beat around the bush either.  Im sure he loves you and will be accepting .  Remember, your the same person whatever clothes you wear.  

Good luck!!!
